Artist History Flin was started in '97 by founding members Forrest-Michael Easter, Paul Powell, and Pat O'Reily, and originally called themselves "Lift". They toured the Southwestern CT scene, making names for themselves among fans and fellow musicians alike. In '98 they released the self-produced album "Gravity", which quickly generated a buzz with local radio stations and diehard fans. With the addition of percussionist/voodoo priest K.C and funky keyboardist Chris Strange came the change of the band's name to "Flin" in '99. This broadened the band's tastes into acid-rock, power-pop, and even a little funk. Now they have currently completed their follow-up CD,entitled "Flin", and are beginning a tour of CT and New York City clubs in early January 2000.
